A sequence is defined by the recursive function f(n+1)=f(n)-2

If f(1)=10 what is f(3)?

f(3) = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the recursive rule and f(1) = 10 , then

f(2) = f(1) - 2 = 10 - 2 = 8

f(3) = f(2) - 2 = 8 - 2 = 6

d. 24+-0.114

step-by-step explanation:

the question requires us to calculate the approximate 95% confidence interval for the mean number of ounces of ketchup per bottle in the sample given the following statistics;

sample mean = 24

standard deviation, σ = 0.4

sample size , n = 49

the confidence interval for a population mean is calculated using the formula;

sample mean ± z-score*(σ/sqrt(n))

the z-score associated with a 95% confidence interval, from the standard normal tables, is;

1.96

substituting these values into the formula;

24 ± 1.96*(0.4/7)

= 24 ± 0.112

from the alternatives given, choice d is closest to the above expression;
